英國大學指稱大不列顛及北愛爾蘭聯合王國的大學,是全世界教學及研究的整體水平和平均水平最高的大學群體之一。英國大學擁有英國皇家特許狀、教宗詔書和議會法案,並有在英國樞密院備案,英國政府規定只有這樣的機構才能頒發學位。
截止到2016年,英國共有163所公立高等教育院校。根據2016年QS世界大學排名,共有10所英國大學進入世界前50,18所英國大學進入世界前100,30所英國大學進入世界前200。
英國大學都是獨立自治的機構,儘管它們主要的經費是由英國的高等教育撥款委員資助,但是它們不屬於任何政府部門的管轄和控制。它們擁有皇家憲章或議會法案給與的特權,可以自身決定自己招收的學生和應聘的職員。但是現在政府在某些方面已經開始干涉,比如大學經費是受到政府嚴格規定的。
